The Ministry, hesitating between the horns of a dilemma, decline to impale themselves upon either. Fast and loose we have been playing for some time between those late diplomatic antagonists, those now actual belligerents the Germans and the Danes, It is not alone that dynastic considerations render the situation of affairs, yonder in Schleswig-Holstein, one for England of considerable difficulty. Em barassing, for example, the position of the Sovereign herself must needs be in this supreme emergency, when Prussia and Denmark are con tending with each other upon sanguinary battle. fields, The Eldest Daughter of England being, not only the wife of the Prussian Heir Apparent, bat the mother also of the future rulers of that king dom ; the Eldest Son of England being the husband of the fair daughter of King CHRISTIAN IX. of Denmark, while the happy union of that young couple has, only as recently as within these last few weeks, been blessed by the birth of an heir to the Heir Apparent to the Crown of England—of themselves these two facts tend by necessity to ren der the position of Her Most Gracious Majesty QUEEN VICTORIA one, just now, of exquisite solici tude. Apart from all dynastic considerations, how ever, it is, without doubt, the solemn and bounden duty of the responsible Ministers of the constitu tional Sovereign of these realms to guard the honour, to vindicate the dignity, to sustain the rights of the Crown and country— " come what, come may," according to our own homely vernacular, :or according to that of our Gallic neighbours coute qui coute, idiomatic phrases popular on either side of the channel, and strictly in accordance with the principle expressed by that sublime old bit of threadbare Latin, " fiat justitia ruat ecelum." Even when the sacrifice of lives the nearest and dearest by all the tender ties of consanguinity, appeared to be involved in the maintenance of that same most sacred principle of justice, the Pagans of old (instance alone BRUTUS and his Sons) knew, full well, in which scale to place the weight of their final decision, whether in that of duty, or in that of the affections. No such momentous alter native being now in any manner involved in the decision (one way or the other) now looked for on the part of England, it would appear to be at least incumbent upon her responsible administrators—not upon the august Queen of these realms herself, but upon her Majesty's constitutional advisers, upon the members of the Administration now installed in power collectively as the British Government—it would at the very least appear to be incumbent upon them as patriotic statesmen, no less than as loyal sub jects, that they should at last, without any further hesitaion, adopt some defiuite and comprehen sible policy—as betwee❑ Denmark and Germany— now that among those Powers as belligerents the. Schleswig-Holstein problem has been submitted at last for solution to the supreme arbitrament of war. To conduct the Dtplomacy of England pertina ciously, at junctures of supreme emergency such Eta the one that has but just now descended like a thunder-cloud upon the ill-fated peninsula to the north of Hanover, to conduct the diplomacy of England at such times, we say, perversely and per tinaceously, upon a system of weak and tedious hesitation, is to confirm the rapid declension of our influence, is yet further to degrade oar already lowered and weakened reputation among the great Powers of Europe. A policy like this, if policy of any kind it can be called, is, to the very last degree, unworthy of England. While Right and Might are fiercely contending upon European Battlefields, it is a crying shame to England to stand aside, if not absolutely with an air of apathy, with an aspect of manifest hesitation and diplomatic bewilderment. An aspect so unbe fitting a Great Power like England, that unless Ministers will make up their minds very soon to tte adoption and the declaration of some bold, clear' comprehensible policy in regard to this war in Den mark, the Opposition, at the risk of being vilified as a Factious Opposition, will be constrained.to inter fere and teach them their duty. Sir GEORGE GREY has lost no time in intro ducing the bill for the treatment of Criminal Lunatics. In thus acting promptly the right hon. baronet has shown great discretion, and he is entitled to credit for being in earnest in his work, and not dilly-dallying, after the fashion of many in office, who promise a thing when any pressure occurs, and when the excitement is over, either forget their promise, or else contrive to put off for an indefinite period its fulfilment. The right bon. baronet explained the nature of the altera tions which he proposed to make ; one of the chief changes is to do away with the present defective arrangement, which allows so much power to the agents of the prisoner. The authority in such cases is to rest " exclusively " with the visiting justices of the gaol, and instead of any two medical men being chosen, as at present, the jus tices are to be responsible for the selection of the doctors. As an important addition it is also pro vided that the decision of these inquirers shall not be held as decisive, but submitted to the Secretary of State, who will have the power to order a further investigation if he so thinks fit. All these suggestions seem to be very desirable ones, and the chief recommendations which they possess is that had the law been thus rectified last session the case of TOWNLEY, with all its con tradictions and its errors, could never have occurred. Indeed, it is only surprising that with the present faulty arrangements more confusions have not already taken place in the treatment of prisoners. Doubtless some other improvements may be intro duced at a subsequent period, but for the present this scheme of the Home Secretary seems to be a very feasible one. If the amendments are strictly carried out, the whole weight of responsibility will fall ,on well known individuals, there will be no shirking and shuffling, no screening of blame, and no hasty venture made which would entail serious consequences hereafter. The bill was well received by the House, on the whole, and so far the Cabinet seem to have made a hit. The question drew forth some speakers, who entered into the details of the subject, and their speeches will do good in proving to the public that the point in which so much inte rest has been roused and so much indignation ex- cited, has not been overlooked by those whose opinions are of consequence to society, and whose decisions rule the laws of the land. Sir J. PARING TON expressed his approval of the measure, and at the same time very properly denounced the course adopted in regard to TOWNLEY, who "had been saved only by a juggle and a trick." This is very true, and it is satisfactory to think that such strong language has been used in regard to that ingenious arrangement on the part of the prisoner's friends, which has now resulted in so lamentable a failure, and made matters ten times worse in so far as re gards the ecandal of the affair. It is to be hoped that the details of this celebrated case may not pass away with the summary fashion, or partake of the evanescent nature which too often distinguishes these affairs. If it lives long in the memory of all who are nearly or remotely connected with crimi nals, so much the better. It is always a very de plorable occurrence when the general sentiment of the country is against the execution of any sentence ordained by the authorities, and this affair of TOWNLEY'S was most unquestianably un popular. Mr. BRIGHT'S remarks did not tend to throw much light on . the subject, for the hon. member is opposed to capital punishments alto gether, and so was hardly a fair judge of the case. Few will follow him when he goes so far as to say that capital punishment is in opposition to the best and noblest feelings of the people, It may bs a stern necessity which enforces it ; it may be a sad state of things which calls for its infliction, but there can be no help for it, and it is only increasing the sin and misery which abound in the world to attempt its extinction. Also, it is exaggerating the case to state that the duty of the Home Secretary is too responsible for any one to undertake willingly. The same_ may be said of any important transac tions of State in which Ministers are engaged, and the question naturally arises, if every one shirks the responsibility and puts off the burden what is to become of society, and how are its interests to be forwarded? Sir G. GREY is certainly not deserving of the blame which some imputed to him for not carrying out the sentence upon TOWNLEY. After what had occurred this would have been a course alike repugnant to the feelings and subversive of the principles of justice. Whatever mistakes may have occurred in the carrying out of the affair as yet it would not mend matters, but make bad worse, to act harshly and inconsistently. On the whole, then, it appears that Sir G. GREY has ex tricated himself from a very painful affair and a very complicated case with as good a grace as possible, and whatever errors he committed in his previous arrangements and decisions, in these latter proposals he has acquitted himself very creditably. It is satisfactory to reflect that the laws of the country have been put in a fair way of adjustment, and that we are not likely to undergo the mortification of again feeling that jus dee has been perverted from its course, and that a false system of mercy has prevailed, to the detri ment of the best interests of the community, and the scandal of all right.judzing persons. Bested that an arrangement should be made between the two Houses, so that, if a bill passed through a committee of the one House, it should not be sub mitted to a similar ordeal in the other, except in special cases. Lord STANLEY also said, with great force, that, considering the exceptional case of the metropolitan railways, it would have been better to have departed from the general principle of leaving the iuitiative of such schemes to private enterprise. "I think," said the noble lord, " it would have been better if somebody, whose opinion would have been listened to with respect, had, after carefully ex amining the whole question, laid down a plan, pat ting aside the arrangements of railway companies. The Government might then have brought forward that plan as their own, to be afterwards carried out on guarantee." This plan, with some modifications, would certainly have had the advantage of giving us a complete and comprehensive scheme, without the risk of two or three lines competing with each other close at hand, while other places are left un heeded because there is uo opposition. The opinion of the House seemed to incline in favour of this view, A proof of the interest taken in the new railway projects, and of the general sense of their import ance, has been already given. The Session has numbered but a very few nights, and already, amid the host of topics pressing forward for inquiry, ex planation, and debate, the railway system of the metropolis is up3n the tapzs. The motion of Mr. MILNER GIBSON, suggested that the various proposals should be referred to a joint committee of Lords and Commons, " to consider the best method of dealing with the railway schemes proposed to be sanctioned within the limits of the metropolis by bills to be introduced in the present session, and to report their opinion, whether any, and, if any, what schemes should not be proceeded with daring the present session." This committee is to consist of ten members, the five already spoken of being nominated by Mr. GIBSON himself, and the remain ing five to be selected from the Lords. The right hon. gentleman, in introducing his motion, re marked upon the magnitude of the interests con cerned as an apology for the somewhat unusual course it was proposed to take on this matter. There is a very wide-spread feeling that the metre politan railways are being carried too far—a feeling which was very decidedly shown in the course of Monday evening's discussion—but the statistics given by the President of the Board of Trade are sufficient to startle the most apathetic. These en • terprising and ambitious schemers have, it seems, scheduling out one fourth of the whole area of the city proper for railway purposes. A moderate appropriation, truly ! The good citizens of London town ought, we suppose, to be thankful that the remaining,three-quarters are left unmolested. But they had better not make too sure of even such immunity. Other sessions are in prospect, with, doubtless, other bills to come, whi c h w ill ma k e fresh demands and strive for still more comprehen sive powers. Of course, such vast innovations in the wealthiest city of the world could not be carried on without commensurate expense, and accordingly the estimated cost of the metropolitan schemes of the present session amount to the trifling sum of £34,000,000 or 1;35,000,000—it is well to allow a small margin in such matters. But it is worth while to know what city men themselves think of these changes, and whether they sufficiently value the great blessing thus brought to their doors. It we are to take Mr. CRAWFORD as the ex ponent of their views, they are by no means enraptured with the prospect before them. That gentleman said that he was himself one of the 700,000 persons who daily went to and from the city, and that he had never, within the last few months, been more than temporarily inconveni enced by the pressure of the traffic. This is rather too favourable a view of the matter, we apprehend, but there is a good deal of force in Mr. CRAWFORD'S representation that when the schemes now actually in progress were completed, land the stations in Cannon-street, Moorgate-street, and Liverpool-street were finished there would be three termini from which persons could reach the Bank in five minutes. As we all know, the vicinity of the Bank is the great focus of attraction. In addition to the stations mentioned as in course of construction there are our three old friends, the Fenchurch-street, Shoreditch, and London-bridge stations, as well as three others now being erected by that London, Chatham, and Dover line, whose übiquitous influence, according to our friend Punch, is to extend from the Great Wall of China to Windsor Castle. Mr. CRAWFORD very perti nently observed that the object professedly sought by all these schemes was to get into the city to get business done, bat if the city was turned into one vast terminus it is not easy to see how its busi ness capacities would be improved. It is certainly well that some check should be put upon this ex cessive innovation, since great sacrifice of property and personal inconvenience are inevitably entailed by it. Mr. MILNER GIBSON'S scheme of a joint com mittee was not very favourably received, although eventually agreed to. Lord STANLEY, who was himself proposed as one of the members of the com mittee, in a speech characterised by his usual good sense and practical experience, pointed out some of the inconveniences attending such a course. It was, he said, a very unusual plan and was entirely dif ferent from the one proposed last year, which sug the more so as it would, of course, be open to Parlia ment to criticise and improve upon. Considering how much the public interests are concerned in this undertaking, and how comprehensible and durable is the nature of the work, it is really high time that some means of harmonising the whole metropolitan railway system should be devised, and the result be brought somewhat into accordance with the national feeling.

Naval and li i ;itary Intelligence. THE NAVY. The iron screw steam vessel Enterprise was successfully launched yesterday at Deptford, She draws only lift. 41in. with engines and boilers on board and armour on her sines. As her rigging and equipment will immerse her less than 3 feet more it is now certain that she will carry all her weights (of guns, men, stores, coals, &c.) and still have buoyancy to spare. This is considered extremely satisfac tory in so small a ship, in which so much has been at tempted. Her strength is proved to be unusually great from the tact that she is reported officially not to have " broken" in the slightest degree during the launch. The greater number of ships of her size break from tin. to 4in, After the launch Captain Chads, superintendent of the dockyard, gave a banquet to a large company. There were present Prince Arthur, attended by Major Elphinstone ; Admiral Robinson, Controller of the Navy ; Mr. Reed, the designer of l,he ship ; Captain Rowley, R.N., who is to command her; Admirals Chads, Lushington, Goldsmith, and a large assembly of naval officera. But one toast was drunk, that of her Majesty. The crew of the screw steamship St. George, 84, Captain the Hon. Francis Egerton (recently returned from the Mediterranean), were paid off yesterday, alongside the Devonport dockyard, by Admiral Superintendent T. M. C. Symonds, C.B. To-day she will be recommissioned, and receive the crew of the screw steamship Russell, 60, Capt. S. Grenfell, which has been employed in the service of the Coastguard at Falmouth, and will now be moored with the steam reserve in Hamoaze. The paddlewhbel steamsloop Geyser was appointed to leave Plymouth yesterday afternoon with men paid off from the St. George, and others requiring passage to Ports mouth. LREUTER'S TELEGRAMS.] The following appointments were made yesterday at the Admiralty :—Francis Taylor, master additional to the Ajax (.how, chief engineer, to th e D u ke of Wellington—Charles—Wm. N. Covey, chief en g ineer, to the Osborne — Robert Wright, chief engineer, to the Cumberland, for the Hero— Thomas W.

War burton and John Elder, second class assist.-engineers, to the Hecate. WORTH THEIR WEIGHT IN r -SILVER.—SO great was the anxiety of the Chinese authorities to obtain some of the Whitworth guns which formed the armament of Commodore Osborn's squadron, that they are said to have offered to place pure silver, weight for weight, in the scales to purchase them. AN AT TEMPTED PEEP UNDER THE YASMAK ! As to beauty of mere dress and ease of attitude, nothing that I have seen in life or in pictures can give the slightest idea of the wonderful grace, the extreme delicacy, tho bird-of-paradise-like uselessness of the Turkish belle Women of rank look like hothouse flowers, and are really cultivated to the highest perfection of physical beauty, having no other employment but make their skins as snow white, and their eyebrows as jet black as possible. When young their skin is literally as white as their veils, with the faintest tinge of pink on the cheek, like that in the inside of a shell, which blends exquisitely with the lender apple leaf green, and soft violet colours, of which they are so fond. The reverse of the picture is, that after the first bloom of youth is past, the skin becomes yellow and sickly looking, and you long to give the yasmak a pull and admit the fresh breeze to brighten up the fine features. A belle and a beauty too, the Turkish woman must be ; for nothing can be more wretched than to see the poor t hin g attempting to walk, or to make herself at all useful, She shuffles along the ground exactly like an embarrassed pa ro q uet, lookin g as if her loose garments must inevitably flutter off at the next step. The drapery which falls so gracefully and easily about her in a carriage, or while reclining on cushions, seems untidy and awkward when she is moving about. In fact if s'he is not a beauty, and is not the property of a rich man, she is the most miserable looking creature possible.— , Constantinople during the Crimean War, by Lady liornby. Tllh SUN. LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 10, 1864. LATEST INTELLIGENCE. THE WAR IN SCHLESWIG. ADDRESS OF THE RIGSDAG TO THE ARMY. COPENHAGEN, FEB. 9, 8.56 a.m. The enemy's outposts are at Ringeneks, and their main body north of Flensburg. The war material left behind at Graasten has been removed in safety to Sonderburg in the island The Rigsdag passed an address today to the army, announcing the energetic prosecution of the war. The address way proposed by the President of the Council. BERLIN, FEB. 10. The Spenersche Zeitung of to-day, says :—" On the morning after the engagement at Oversee, the corps of General von Gablenz and the Prussian division commanded by General von Mulbe, entered Flensburg. They found the town already occupied by the cavalry of Prince Frederick Charles, which had marched from Arnis to Flensburg in one day. General von Gablenz and Mulbe, having allowed their troops a day's rest, which they urgently re quired, advanced towards the intrenchments at D up pc:. I." ARMISTICE BETWEEN THE GERMANS AND DANES. We (limes) have received the following from an authentic source : "Wednesday Morning. "A telegram has been received by a financial house in the city announcing that an armistice has been concluded between the Germans and Danes." LITERATURE. Bradshaw's .Railway Manual. Vol. XVI. W. J. Adhrnr. As a sixteenth issue of a long established and steadily improving and gradually expanding Book of Reference, this edition for 1864, of Bradshaw's Railway Manual, is very remarkable. The work itself in its integrity has grown at length to the goodly bulk of 436 very closely, but at the same time very clearly, printed pages —to which have been added 134 pages more, i❑ the shape of a highly elaborated appendix. The precise nature of the manual as a Book of Reference must not, however, be misapprehended by those who are not already acquainted with the work itself. It is no sort of guide to mere Railway Travellers. Its purpose is the most aptly defined by its second title, namely, where it is spoken of as the Shareholders' Guide and Official Directory. It contains within it, this compact but compre pensive Manual, the succinct history and the exact financial position of every railway company, not only in this country, but in the wide world—British, Foreign, and Colonial. It gives, in an admirably, well arranged, and instantly accessible form, an astonishing mass of perfectly reliable, because, in each instance, carefully authen ticated statistics. It brings every date to which it refers, down to the close of the year immediately preceding the date of publication. Thus, the Manual for 1864, now under consideration, has its data brought down to the very end of 1863, to the 31st of last December inclusively. As indicative of the facilities afforded by the book in the way of ready reference to every matter upon which it treats, it will be sufficient to remark that it gives, for example, an alphabetical arrangement of the whole administrative and executive staffs in the Three Kingdoms. The work is thoroughly well got up, and is corrected, so far as we have been yet enabled to scrutinise it, with careful, almost, as one might say, with microscopic minuteness. Several steel engraved railway maps, such, for in stance, as the maps of the British Islands, of the con tinent of Europe, of the peninsula of Hindostan, and of a portion of North America, enhance the value of the Manual as an easily comprehensible work of reference. It is to be regretted, however, that these folding maps are not (as all folding maps ought in reason to be) backed with linen, so as to secure them from the otherwise all but inevitable casualty of getting gradually torn and defaced. The Musical Monthly. No. 2. Arthur Hall Swart, and Allen. Begun with the New Year, this charming and varied " Organ of the Muses" has reached that test of a new periodical, the second number. And the instalment for January, now before us, justifies, we cannot but think, the promise visible in the initial instalment published with the magazines for February. As to the diversity of the contributions that characterise " The Musical Monthly," they may be readily enough illustrated by a mere passing reference to the contents, or by a reference at least to the pick of the papers comprised within number two. An Editorial upon " William Makepeac© Thackeray," is followed by another Editorial on " the Tercentenary Com mittee," meaning, of course, the tercentenary of the birth of Shakspere. The latter critical, but dis passionate in tone, the former earnestly eulogistic. Another paper, more of an essay than an editorial, descants upon "Artificial Popularity." Then fol low the miscellaneous contributions among them, wide enough in contrast to each other, here " London Sights and Sounds," there "Paris Sights and sounds." Quite as matters of course in such a publication, we have papers on "Music," we have " Musical Notes and Notices," we have an account of " Operas and Operettas." There are, besides these, literary notes and notices, criticisms on the portraits of Thackeray, a foretaste of " The Forthcoming Season," a batch of poetic trifles, and a couple of musical contri butions: the latter consisting of " A Hunting Song," very cheery and very exhilerating, and of a " Frost Fairy Mazurka," illustrated. One thing we cannot but regret in regard to The Musical Monthly, namely, that it has not received an honest English subtitle, or no sub-title at all, in stead of being dubbed, as it is, with an air of Frenchified affectation—" The Musical Monthly— and—Repertoire of Literature, the Drama, and the Arts." Why not call it rather than that, simply "Magazine," or, solely, "The Musical Monthly ?" THE SIGHT OF SIGHTS ,IN ALL LONDON—viz., Rattenßow at the height of the Season in the Pick of the Afternoon—What are the famed Elysian fields of Paris to Hyde Park at this high tide of splendour? What the cavalcade of the Bois de Boulogne, or the promenade of Longohamps, to the long stream of equipages noiselessly rolling along the bank of the Serpentine? Everybody in London (worth naming) is being carried on wheels, or be strides pigskin girthed o'er hundred-guinea horseflesh, or struts in bright boots, or trips in soft sandalled prunella, or white satin with high heels. There is Royal Blood in a mail phaeton. Royal Blood smokes a large cigar, and handles its ribbons scientifically. There is a Duke in the dumps, and behind him is the Right Reverend Father, in a silk apron and a shovel hat, who made that fierce verbal assault upon his grace in the House of Lords last night. There is the crack advocate of the day, the successful defender of the young lady who was accused of poisoning her mamma with num vomica in her negus ; and there is the young lady her self, encompassed with a nimbus of petticoat, lolling back in a miniature brougham with a gentleman old enough to be her grandfather, in a high stock, and a wig died deep indigo. Is that Anonyma driving twin ponies in a low phaeton, a parasol attached to her whip, and a groom with folded arras behind her. Bab I there are so many Anonymas nowadays. If it isn't the Nameless one herself, it is Synonyma. Do you see that stout gentleman with the coal black beard and the tarnished fez cap? That is the Syrian ambassador. The liver-coloured man in the dingy white turban, the draggle tailed blue burnous, the cotton stockings, and the alpaca umbrella, is the Maronite envoy, The nobleman who is driving that four-in-hand, and is got up to such a perfec tion of imitation of the manners and costume of a stage coachman, has a rental of a hundred and thirty thousand a year. He passes his time mostly among ostlers, engine drivers, and firemen. He swears, smokes a cutty pipe, and of his two intimate friends, one is a rough rider and the other a rat catcher. Mr. Benazi, the great Hebrew Finan cier, you must know—yonder cadaverous, dolorous-looking figure in shabby clothes, huddled up in that corner of the snuff-coloured chariot, drawn by the spare-ribbed horses that look as though they had never had enough to eat. He is Baron Benazi in the Grand Duchy of Sachs-Pfeifigen, where he lent the Grand Duke money to get the crown jewels out of pawn. That loan was the making of Ben. there is nothing remarkable about him save his nose, which stands out, a hooked promontory, like the prow of a Roman galle3 , from among the shadows cast by the squabs of the snuff-coloured chariot. That nose is a power in the state. That nose represents millions. When Baron Benazi's nose shows signs of flexibility, monarchs may breathe again, for loans can be negotiated. But when the Benazian proboscis looks stern and rigid, and its owner rubs it with an irritable finger, it is a sadly ominous sign of something being rotten in the state of Sachs-Pfeifigen, and of other empires and monarchies which I will not stay to name. What else ? Everything. Whom else? Everybody.— /lir. Sala's new story " Quite Alone," in Dickens's " All the Year Round." (10-&-HEAD-ITITENESS IN YANKEELAND, as humorously defined by Mr. Sala in his last letter, in the Daily Telegraph.—The only way to get on in America is, having once paid your money, to insist on see ing the show. If you don't, the people will think you are mean-spirited, and trample on you. See it. See the show. Have the animals stirred up with a long pole. Pinch the spotted girl, to see if it is real flesh, or only tights she has on. Pick the kangaroo's pouch. Make the pelican bleed again for your gratification. You have paid your money. Don't be imposed upon. Take all. Halloa with strident voice. Curse and swear in 'a land where execrations are rife. Brag louder than the greatest braggadocios in the world. If need be, lie—lie with a face of brass and lungs of leather. " Crack up" your own country, to the detriment of all others, Vow that we won the battle of Fontenoy. Swear that Peter Morrison was the greatest philanthropist of the ago. Declare that Mr. Roebuck is 90 feet high. It a man spits on your boot, spit on his waistcoat, and then "guess that you didn't aim low enough." If you find his letters lying about, read them ; if he tells you anything in confidence, publish it in a newspaper ; keep on moving ; go a head; go into business; smash; recuperate ; drink with everybody; talk dollars from sunrise to midnight. Do this, and the Americans will admire you, and you may admire them. They will say you era a "smart man," and at last you will be spoken of as a " remarkable" man. But if you pay your money and don't walk up to the booth ; if you are nervous and abashed ; if ru d eness . pains and bestial manners disgust you ; if you strive to substitute temperate argument for f ro thy d ec l ama tion, and rational proof for impudent assertion; and if you tell the truth, and aro modest and a gentleman —you can never hope for suc cess in this young, adventurous, and astonishing country. You had better " clear out" before you are " run out." , You had better g o h ome b y t h e nex t Cunard steamer, for you are clearly not fitted for the institutions and the people of the United States, PROCLAMATION OF FIELD MARSHAL VON WRANGEL. HAMBURG, FEB. 10. A proclamation issued by Field-Marshal von Wrangel on the 7th inst., announces the appoint ment of Baron von Zedlitz, as Prussian Civil Com missioner of Schleswig; confirms provisionally the civil functionaries in their ports ; declares that the German language is henceforth to be need in all branches of the administration ; and finally prohi bits any political demonstrations not in accordance with the policy pursued by the great German Powers, and attempts to establish any other autho rity in the duchy of Schleswig, SPAIN. THE MARRIAGE OF THE COUNT OF PARIS. MADRID, FEB. 10. The reply of the Emperor Napoleon to the letter of the Queen of Spain announcing the marriage of the daughter of the Duke de Montpensier to the Count of Paris is said to be couched in very affec tionate terms. SAXONY. DRESDEN, Feb. 7. The President of the First Chamber, Baron Friesen, the Chief of the Conservative party in Saxony, closed the debate on the 6th, on the motion respecting the recognition of Prince Frederick of Augustenburg as Duke of Schleswig-Holstein by the Bund, and said :—" There might be some objections respecting the details of the motion. But the principal duty now was to waive all differ ences of opinion with regard to a question of Ger man right. Foreigners had sometimes endeavoured to put an interpretation on Art. 35 of the final Act of Vienna—an interpretation as inconsistent with the spirit of that Article as revolting to the feel ings. Foreign diplomatists had called Germany a combination for self-defence.' May it be so. No State in the world has any right to make war, if not fur self-defence—for the defence of its rights. Germany would never think of making an unjust war; for the Germa❑ nation was a nation fond of peace and of right. Bat should the moment come to defend her rights and her frontiers, be it to re pulse a foreign aggression or to prevent it, Germany would know, without consulting foreign Powers, how to interpret Art. 35 of the final Article of Vienna. ACheers.) The question of the day would become 'a question of permanent in terest, because it would lead to a clearer definition and understanding of the occupation of the Diet. The German nation would endure no foreign inter ference, no hegemony. The statesman who would look upon the present movement as a democratic one could not have a heart for German right—(cheers)— nor feel in his own breast the pulse of German life. Where the movement would cad nobody could tell ; but one thing appeared certain—that Austria and Prussia would be brought to a consciousness of being German Powers above all, and of yielding under whatever form it may be, to the central authority of the Confederation. Germany,' said the speaker, ' was a Power greater than Prussia and Austria; the whole more powerful than any part. The day was near at hand when the great German Powers would learn that they were nothing without Germany; t'hat they have to be proud of the German name and of the German flag; that the smaller German States are quite as German as the greater; that a subject of the smallest Ger man State is worth quite as much as a subject of the greatest.'" (Cheers.) The motion was then unanimourly carried. FRANCE. BoußsE, Feb. 9.—The market has been very dull, and the business done shows a decline on yes terday's quotations.

THE LATE LUCY AlKlN—daughter of Dr. Aikin and niece to Mrs.Barbauld.—Died at Hampstead on the 29th of January, at the age of 81, Miss Lucy Aikin, known not only as an authoress herself, but also as one of a family noted in British authorship. She was the daughter of that Dr. John Aikin, and niece of that Miss Aikin, afterwards Mrs. Barbauld, whose joint work, "Evenings at Home," is still so popular, and some of whose separate productions are also remembered and read. Dr. Aikin died in 1822, aged 75, and Mrs. Barbauld in 1825, aged 81. A son of Dr. Aikin, Dr. Arthur Aikin, distinguished as a chemist and geologist, died in 1854 at the ago of 81—his sister Lucy having survived him just ten years. Lucy Aikin's last published work was a "Life of Addison,' , which appeared sonic twenty years ago.
